Post War British aims to present reference and ephemera – mostly related to 1950’s and 60’s British Lighting design, with occasional touches of Art, Culture and Music.
With a particular fondness for the work of architect husband and wife team – John and Sylvia Reid, we hope you will find the PWB site of interest.
Over the years we have been very lucky to connect with a small number of like-minded collectors. If you too love British Lighting and have info to share, or ‘tales of the hunt’ – please get in touch.
Unless otherwise indicated – all photos are by PWB, and scanned materials are from the PWB collection.

Liberty’s fourth floor was clearly the place to be in ’53.
Special order Forrest Modern floor lamp (long rod extension above the red reflector shade) + a very cute desk lamp from the same range, with golden yellow bowl shaped reflector.
